The Past

We all have regrets in our past. When we allow our minds to drift back to a happier time in our lives, we sometimes wish things could be as simple as they seemed back then. But were they really as simple then or have we just had time to reflect?
For instance, we have to remember that an ex is an ex for a reason. When time goes by and we have not been in a relationship for awhile we may begin to question why we left a past relationship in the first place. Were things really that bad in the relationship? Did I leave the relationship prematurally?
Loneliness has a way of creeping in and we have a way of forgetting just why we left a past relationship. Have you ever gone back to an ex and gave it a second chance only to leave again? Have you ever left a relationship because you thought the person wasnt right for you but later realized that things werent as bad as you made them?
To reflect on the past is to remember a lesson.
